Hi,
It can take that long sometimes.

For me its all the time . After 50% charging takes forever

If I completely discharge my phone, it usually takes anywhere between 4 and 5 hours to charge it back up to 100%. This is assuming that I do not use the phone as it is charging.

Same on my Sensation. But I´ve heard from People, they charge in about 2-2.5h...
Its crazy somehow

The fastest method is to turn off phone and charge it. But it also depend from charger to charger. For example I had a faulty usb cable and phone never did charge while powered on. I discovered faulty cable with "CurrentWidget". It displays in mA current charging. It was always drawing power from phone. After changing cable it was charging.
Conclusion is higher mA the charging is faster...

What blue-yu said, to a point.
The wall charger that came with my phone is faster than using the usb cable.
Also, powering down the phone so its doing as little as possible while its charging will help.

Yes. A USB port on a computer is limited to 500ma. The wall charger can output 1000ma (double the USB).

I have noticed with generic charges, it can take between 3-5 hours as well. With a OEM HTC charger, it usually takes me about 2 hours from 10% to 100%.

I have found on market 2000 mA charger. Since HTC recommend max 1000 mA, is it safe to try the oem charger?

I use wall charger original what comes in sensation box. On pc battery monitor says i need 8 hour charge . Starting to think something is wrong. Before i was desire s and that charging from 10-100% in like max 2 hours

Official chargers connect the 2 data pins together to let the phone know it is connected to ac so it draws the full 1000ma if data pins are not shorted the phone will think its connected to USB and only draw 500ma
Use a battery app to check if your charger is registering as ac and drawing the full amount
"Battery mix" is an example of an app that will tell you

the aftermarket battery (chichitec) that i'm using has been chargign up considerably faster than the stock one. it also provides a lot more usage time.

On my mains 550ma SE microusb charger it takes me approx 3hrs from 0-100% , or 4hrs from notebook usb, according to battery monitor widget pro.

I usually charge my phone to full after it drops below 30%.
It always takes my Sensation 2.5 hours via wall charger.

It seems the battery charging time as well as boot up time has something to do with the recovery you use.
With Clockwork mod recovery, my bootime was 7-8 minutes (I tried clearing cache partition and all, with fast boot disabled) and battery charging use to take 5 hours.
Since two days, I have installed default recovery and now my boot time is about 1 minute, and charging time is around 2-3 hours. This time also, i have fast boot disabled and cleared cache partition after installing the recovery.
Can anybody else do this experiment and let us know the result here?

Dunno about recovery and bootup. Bootup for me is about 25-35 sec from cold boot, 4ext touch recovery. I will try that ap from amrket and i will see if there is something

[Q] Galaxy R charging problems

Hi Guys,
I have been searching for an answer for this problem but couldn't find one
My stock gingerbread 2.3.5 not rooted GR has following problem
I woke up and tried to charge my GR but it didn't recognize the charing cable, so i tried it on the GS2 cable of my dad and it didn't work also.
I have tried the GS2 on my charging cable and it worked and i have already tried an GR battery of my friend and the problem was there too.
The GR does not recognize my OTG cable wich was working a few days later and also works on my nexus7 perfectly.
The GR USB cable does not work also.
I have let it on and it showed me 14% Battery and after one hour (not plugged into the charger) it showed me 30% battery.
When I tiried to charge it when it was off, the Battery appeared and it showed the loading circle in the battery then the screen went off and after 5 seconds, this repeated until you plugged it off.
My question is what i can do with it?
Thanks in advance

First of all this thread should be in QA thread and not in General...
secondly..by reading your problem...i can say that there is some thing wrong with your USB cable..
have tried to charge it with usb cable on PC ??
if you have left with warranty..then SSC is your destination..!!

I habe tried charging IT on PC with USB cable but id didnt work also. Do you think restoring it will make a Difference because i dont want to lose my Game saves

Sometimes high humidity can also damage the USB port...
As suggested by mj.vikram, its best if you give it to SSC..

How are you trying to charge it? If you've connected the USB to a computer it will show the red X. It needs the Mains charger to charge while it's on.

im charging it on the stock wall charger that it came with. it only charges if i power off the tablet

Then that sounds like a wierd software problem. I am going to take a shot in the dark and recommend you back up your tablet then reload your rom and see if that helps. When did this issue first start happening?

I think my battery's screwed up

Hey guys. I didn't use my note for a week or so and it's battery fully drained. When I tried charging it using the wall charger the screen would turn on give that charging indicator for about 4 seconds and then the screen would turn off and then would. repeat the whole process. I kept it plugged in for about two hours, removed the charger booted up the note and found out it charged only 10%. So I plugged in the wall charger again, and I noticed an x symbol over the battery indicator on the note 10.1. After this I tried using my OTG devices on the note also but even they wouldn't be recognized. Has anyone else encountered suck a problem. Is there any solution?

How about a custom kernel with fast charge? Are you using the stock wall adapter and USB cable? Their outputs matter

If everything fails, flash stock back on... See if it still does it. If it does, its cord, charger or USB port is damaged and loose.
